56-6-118. Reciprocity.

(a)  The commissioner shall waive any requirements for a nonresident license applicant with a valid license from the applicant's home state, except the requirements imposed by § 56-6-108, if the applicant's home state awards nonresident licenses to residents of this state on the same basis. Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, after a public hearing the commissioner may waive any of the limitations or requirements imposed by § 56-6-108 if the applicant's home state awards nonresident licenses to residents of this state on the same basis. However, nothing contained in this subsection (a) shall prevent the commissioner from denying, suspending or revoking a license issued under this part pursuant to § 56-6-112.

(b)  A nonresident producer's satisfaction of the producer's home state's continuing education requirements for licensed insurance producers shall constitute satisfaction of this state's continuing education requirements if the nonresident producer's home state recognizes the satisfaction of its continuing education requirements imposed upon producers from this state on the same basis.
